How do the lymph and immune systems depend on the cardiovascular system?

1 answer:

7 0

The correct option is C.
The heart is part of the cardiovascular system. The heart pump the blood round the body several times in a day. The blood is made up of several types of cells which carry out specific function in the body, these include the white blood cells which serves as soldiers of the body. The lymph refers to the fluid that circulate throughout the lymphatic system. Both the blood and the lymph are carried round the body by the cardiovascular system during the process of circulation.<span />

Comparing amino acid sequences in proteins has been used to determine the relatedness of organisms. Below is a graphic that show

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

A) Species A and E are more closely related than either species are related to species D.

B) Between A and B = 99.1%

Between species A and C =97.5%

Between species B and C = 97.3%

Similarity in amino acids sequence reflects similarity in DNA sequence

C) Species A and E are most closely related

D) Species A and E have the most similarity in amino acid sequence, and hence DNA sequence.

Explanation:

A) The amino acid sequences of the protein, keratin, in species A and D has a difference of about 19 whereas species A and E have a difference of only 1. Therefore, it means that keratin in species A and D will have differences in structure whereas between species A and E, they would have almost the same structure.

Also, species D and E have a difference of 20 in their amino acids sequence, therefore, the structure of keratin in both species will have differences in structure.

B) Similarity between A and B:

450 - 4 = 446

In percentage: 446/450 × 100% = 99.1%

Similarity between A and C:

450 - 11 = 439

In percentage: 439/450 × 100% = 97.5%

Similarity between B and C:

450 -12 = 438

In percentage: 438/450 × 100% = 97.3%

The sequence of DNA of species determines their amino acid sequences because information in DNA is transcribed to RNA which are then used to make proteins. Therefore, if a species are very closely related, they are expected to have very similar genetic sequences and thus proteins too. This is reflected in similarity between amino acid sequences in their proteins.

C). Species A and E are most closely related.

D) Species A and E have only a single difference in their amino acids sequence for Keratin. This translates to about 99.7% similarity which is the highest among all the species compared. Therefore, species A and E are most closely related.

Which problem does the Montreal Protocol attempt to remedy?

madreJ [45]

Answer:

A.The hole in the ozone layer

Explanation:

• Montreal protocol is an international treaty that was signed to control the use of substances that are resulting in the depletion of the ozone hole.

This treaty was signed in the year 1987 and became effective form 1989.

• Since the time that this treaty has come into force, there has been a significant improvement in the ozone hole that was observed over Antarctic as it's size has decreased.

• This improvement has been possible because the treaty helped to phase out chemicals such as chlorofluorocarbons, carbon tetrachloride, etc. that are responsible for ozone hole depletion.

Which of the following statements is/are true of corals?

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

The correct answers are option A. "Corals are animals". B. "Corals are benthic organisms"., and E. "Corals live in tropical water".

Explanation:

Corals are animals, what we know as a coral, is in fact a group of small animals called polyps that need food to survive. Corals are benthic organisms because they live at the bottom of the sea. The subclass of benthic organisms that corals belong is called Macrobenthos, for being large enough to be seen at the naked eye. Corals live mostly in tropical waters, because they do not tolerate waters with a temperature below 18 Celsius.

Diana is moving into a new apartment. She wants to get a heavy chair up to her second-floor apartment, but it will only fit thro

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is D) Diane will have to travel a farther distance to move the chair.</em>

Explanation:

To slide the chair up an inclined path, Diana would have to travel a further distance. While using the ladder to reach the second floor window would have made the distance smaller, but more force would have been required to move the chair through climbing a ladder. Diane would have got easily exhausted for moving the chair across the ladder. Using the inclined path will make the distance farther but as much force would not be required in this process. Hence, the method of using an incline is better.
